OFTWARE

Before you install the software, unpack the hardware components and have
the Sender (Model VT37A) near your PC ready to connect it up when the
ShowTime software installation program instructs you to do so.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT connect the USB connector before you
install the software.

Log on to the Internet and go to the web address in the e-mail you received
when your order was confirmed (or visit www.x10.com/software). There
you will be able to install the software (you need to be connected to the
Internet while you install the software). Follow the instructions to install it.
At the appropriate point in the installation you will be instructed to plug the
Sender's USB connector into your PC’s USB port. When you do this,
Windows® will tell you it has found new hardware and will automatically
install the X10 USB driver for the Sender. Follow the instructions to
complete the software installation.

Your ShowTime

 Wireless Photo Video Sender kit consists of a Sender

which connects to the VGA output and audio out jack on your PC, and a
Receiver which you connect to your TV. It includes a software program
that you install from X10’s Web Site. You control the Photo Sender and
software using a remote control (included). The Sender converts the VGA
video from your PC's video card and the audio signal from your PC’s sound
card, into wireless Radio Frequency (RF) signals and transmits them (even
through walls) to the Receiver. The Receiver converts the signals back to
their original form and passes them to your TV. The software application
lets you view digital photos stored on your computer's hard drive, on any TV
in your home.
